Bovina is an unincorporated community located about 7 miles (11 km) east of Vicksburg in Warren County, Mississippi, United States, on Interstate 20. It is part of the Vicksburg Micropolitan Statistical Area. The name Bovina is related to the Latin word for "cow". The 1988 film Mississippi Burning was filmed the area. One of the most unusual weather occurrences in Mississippi history occurred on May 11, 1894. On that day a Gopher Tortoise totally encased in ice fell with the hail.
Notable residents include:
